NOLCHA FASHION WEEK NYC OPENING NIGHT

Today we decided to go and do a bit of shopping during the day. I have been on the hunt for an exclusive pair of faux gold earrings for so long so i set out on a mission to find them.

I ended bumping into this guy who I had to take a picture of as I was in love with his Marc Jacob shades and found his whole look very interesting. He was so sweet and we ended up having a brief convo about Brick Lane as he happened to have previously lived there whilst in London.

I ended up not finding any earrings I liked but bought this hat which I wore for the rest of the day and it just so happened to match my outfit. For a mere $10 from Soho you can’t go wrong really- such a bargain.

Julie our fashion assistant wore her Kate Moss outfit and the amount of women whispering “there's the Kate Moss outfit” was amazing. Julie’s outfit was well spotted.

The Kate Moss outfit

A New York based publication which I really can’t remember the name of decided to take snaps of our outfits for their publication which was a great compliment.

The Evening:

For the evening I wore my exclusive designer vintage dress and complimenting vintage brooch and my favourite black leather Chanel bag.

Today we watched shows showcasing Spring 08 collections from designers Lei Marco, Katya Leonovich, and Samata Angel. Lei Marco stunned the audience with his dramatic and glamorous women’s and men’s wear collection. www.leimarco.com To immediately follow was Moscow’s Katya Leonovich. Her new line consisted of structured, yet feminine pieces. www.katyaleonovich.com. The last designer of the night captivated us with her sexy, versatile, and sophisticated looks. Samata Angel’s Samata’s Muse was a huge hit and a great ending for the opening festivities. www.samatasmuse.com

We continued the celebration at the after party taking place at Retreat. By this stage I was shattered and to top it off all the cabs were on strike :(

It was a wonderful and pleasurable night overall and I can’t wait for tomorrow’s shows.
